No more questions no more lies
Do and deal for no surprises
Cause you will never slip away
Slip away in the night
[Verse 2]
Waiting patient for the sun to rise
In reveals a stoic smile
But you will never slip away
Slip away in the night
[Chorus]
You find me waiting here for you
Come and suffer here
You find me holding my breath for you
Come and suffer here
[Verse 3]
In the violence of a mind's eye
We had a deal for no surprises
Cause you will never slip away
Slip away in the night
[Refrain]
But you're not yourself
I know you better than you
But you're not yourself
I know you better than you
[Chorus]
You find me holding my breath for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way
You find me on my knees for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way
[Break]
Don't you lie down, be still in love
Don't you leave now, be still in love
Don't you leave now, be still
[Chorus]
You find me holding my breath for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way
You find me on my knees for you
It's never more than I can take
I wouldn't have it any other way
[Outro]
But you're not yourself
I know you better than you
And you're not yourself
I know you better than you
[Verse 1] No more questions no more lies Do and deal for no surprises Cause you will never slip away Slip away in the night [Verse 2] Waiting patient for the sun to rise In reveals a stoic smile But you will never slip away Slip away in the night [Chorus] You find me waiting here for you Come and suffer here You find me holding my breath for you Come and suffer here [Verse 3] In the violence of a mind's eye We had a deal for no surprises Cause you will never slip away Slip away in the night [Refrain] But you're not yourself I know you better than you But you're not yourself I know you better than you [Chorus] You find me holding my breath for you It's never more than I can take I wouldn't have it any other way You find me on my knees for you It's never more than I can take I wouldn't have it any other way [Break] Don't you lie down, be still in love Don't you leave now, be still in love Don't you leave now, be still [Chorus] You find me holding my breath for you It's never more than I can take I wouldn't have it any other way You find me on my knees for you It's never more than I can take I wouldn't have it any other way [Outro] But you're not yourself I know you better than you And you're not yourself I know you better than you Explain Request ×
